Would these not be sweet? I would LOVE a Bandwagon hat on a REAL baseball hat. Would look amazing, thoughts?

    New Era? Meh. I'd be all over it if it was an American Needle cap. Or maybe Twins 47.

    The quality on the 5950s is wildly inconsistent.

    Personally I hate the way they look. But even if I didn't, here's the problem. If Pearl Jam were to have a 5950 hat, Bieber would end up wearing it. Apparently that's all the dude wears, and I don't want to have one piece of matching wardrobe with Bieber.

    That'd be the only way I could buy a PJ hat. I'm a pretty big guy (6'2) and thus have a fairly giant melon. My hat size is 7 7/8 or an 8 (I tend to buy 8, because 7 7/8 gets tight, once it gets wet and shrinks).

    Forever the only hats I wore were baseball caps. Went through a few blue jays and mariners ones. Last year they did a run of Red Wings black caps with the red wing logo, which I'd been wait for years to see.

    A pearl jam once would be icing on the cake.

    I'm all for a 5950. Great idea.

    I'd prefer a classic style cap made by Ebbets Field Flannels, and at this point they're not much more expensive than the 5950s... Wasn't much long ago the on-field ballcaps went for 18 bucks or 21 bucks. Now they are $35!!

    Is the "bandwagon" hat the Mariners trident-style knockoff? 10C carried those for years; when I finally decided to pull the trigger they no longer had my size =(

    Truthfully I haven't liked much of PJ's headgear but the 2009 tour hat was cool, even if it's a flexi fit.

    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    Who remembers the pilgrim hats from the 1998 tour?

    Ooh, EFF, good call. And it's a Seattle-based company.
  • JTHJTH Chicago Posts: 3,238
    Actually, now that I think about it, you could probably have EFF make up a batch of hats with the bandwagon logo on it (as long as the PJ/10C powers that be are OK with it).

    New Era would do it for sure. I think the minimum order is a dozen, or maybe 2 dozen. I can't remember. But, of course, they'll slap their stupid logo on the side.

    I'd definitely love a 5950.... my collection of 5950 Montreal Canadians caps can always be supplemented ;)
    Houston, Texas... Believe it or not, there are 7 million people here... must be a couple of fans who'd love to see you play.

    Can't understand why americans love these caps/tracker hats or whatever so much, they are like the ugliest things in the world. Well I guess it goes with their terrible sports kits too!

    Well the 5950 hats are very distinct looking, and one does not have to be in the Justin Bieber fan club to have seen pictures of him. For the past week my e-mail page (Verizon) has had an advertisement on the right side of the screen for something Bieber related, and he's sporting a Yankees 5950 hat. Also the fact that he wears a different 5950 hat for each town he goes to (Rangers in Dallas, White Sox in Chicago, Yakees in New York, Lakers in L.A., etc) was a topic of discussion on ESPN recently, as well as not that long ago when he got booed for wearing a hat for the wrong city at a concert (I think it was a New York hat in Boston, but can't remember). It's impossible to escape Bieber. If I'm watching ESPN, SNL, or just checking my e-mail, the dude is bound to pop up. Although I think he's on the decline now.

    I won't deny it any longer. I'm BiebersFuton, and I have the lowest fan club member over there. But at the last Bieber show he called me out for not rocking hard enough, so I'll do the right thing be giving away my front row tickets to more deserving Beliebers from now on.

    Is there any way to actually break in the brim of a 5950 hat or if you buy one are you stuck with that runway brim and looking like a wannabe thug?

    Easy to do, hell the 5950 is what the players wear onfield, and most of them have bent brims.
